A VACANT CoNsULsHIP.-It was an
nounced in the GAZETTE some time since
that Mr.. E. P Tuner, of Fauque, county, a
son of the late Admiral Turner, of the navy,
had. through the Influence of friends in this
State and New York, been appointed U 5.
Consul 10 Mozambique. Shortly after the
appointment the papers throughout the
country spoke OF Mr.. Turner as brave
man to go to place so fer from CIVILIZATION
and to q climate where il was said white
man could not live over year. Still MIR.
Turner made all his arrangements for going
to his post, procuring his outfit, &c,
and wen. on his journey as far as New York
where he changed his plans. There be found
that tie difficulties OF reaching his post were
50 great aud the expense attending tho trip
80 large that he abandoned the idea OF be.
coming the u. s. Consul to such place and
returned to his home in Fauguier county,
where he now is. So tho Mozambique CON
sulship. which has been vacant for so long a
time. still remains untitled.

THE RECENT ASSAULT CAsE.-Tha case
of William Jordan, William Marshall, Israel
Thompson, Ben Mason and Kiah Parker,
the five colored men charged with an as"
sault on Lee Wright on the Hunting Creek
road on the night of the 9th ult., came up
for trial at the Mayors Office to-day, Mr..
Wright having sufficiently recovered from
the injuries he received on that night to be
present. From the evidence Of the many
witnesses who were examined it appeared
that On the night 10 question the five men
we're skylarkiDg in store on Franklin
street, when the proprietor asked them to
desst. Upon this Wright, who had been
drinking, said that be could put the men out
of The store and "clean them all up" if ne
cessary. He was requested by teveral per-
sous III the store TO let the men alone, but
he, with Albert Henderson, followed them
some distance ard engaged in n free fight,
during which ne Was knocked down, beaten
and cut about the throat or chin. 1t was
ia evidence tho Wright attempted TO take q
rock from VIM. Marshall, when the latter
threw bim down and beat him; the two
men then got up and all those engaged in
the row started down towards the bridge
and that Wright was shortly afterwards
found lying in the road with his throat cut.
Who cut him and with what instrument he
WIS cut was not brought out. The Mayor
fined Won Marshall $40 and dismissed the
others on the ground that Wright brought
on the row.

BADLY CUT-A white man named Chas
Nightingale was found at the corner OF
Thirteenth and c streets northwest, in
Washington, last night, with bad knife
wound in the right side. He was perfectly
unconscious. but oa being taken to the sta
ton house recovered sufficiently to state
shat his assaiIaut was man named Charles
Dtswner Nightngale's wound is very Sc
rious aud it is impossible to state whether
he will live or die. Both men had been
drinking. During the evening they put Oh
boxing gloves, which resulted in fight.
In this Nightingale was knocked down and
kick ei pretty severely. Fearing trouble the
friends Of he two men attempted to sepa.
rate them, but they went of together, and
the next seen Of either of them was when
nightingale was picked up by the officers.
Nightingale is about thirty years of age and
is resident OF this city. His sister, who
visited him to day, reports him in a very
critical condition. Brawner has not Jet
been arrested.

A DANGEROUS PRACrICE.-Complaint is
made of the reckless and, in some instances,
of the almost vicious manner in which many
of tho scores of gunne:s, while shooting reed
birds constantly discharge their fowling
pieces on Hunting Creek bridge and in the
road Just south OF that structure, irrespective
of persons who are passing along the thor
Uushfare aud some of whom have timid
horses The practice complained OF is q
very dangerous one and may result serious
ly If not put stop to- There is a law in
force against such proceedings and the ALL
thoritie5 Of Fairfax county should mako an
example of any one caught discharging a
gun on public road or bridge. A gentle
man from this city, while driving along the
road referred to a day or two since, lost oil
control over his horse and might have been
serious ly Injured. He says one gunner whom
he passed was about to discharge his piece
a few feet in front of his horses head when
he called to him not to shoot and that an
other gunner shot at a bird the instant after
he had passed him. As few horses stand
ihe discharge OF fire arms so close TO their
heads it is wonder that some accident re-
sutine from runaway has not occurred,
and why mauy persons travelling on that
road are moi shot is considered remarkable.
Many OF the gunners referred to are IRE
spOnsibie persons, but it is said that some Of
them know better, but mat in their anxiety
TO kill bird they lose nil regard for The
safety of others.

The Naval Academy.

It is quite evident from the annual report
Of Commander w. 7. SAMPSON that impor-
tant changes will soon take place in the
course OF instruction at the Naval Academy
Chief Engineer MELVILLE not long ago
spoke OF the mistake made in devoting the
entire academic course to studies shared
equally by cadets destined for totally dis
tinct branches OF the naval service, and this
subject had already received the attention
Of the Academic Board. The difference be-
tween the routine duties of line officers and
engineers is so marked that 1t ought to
receive some recognition In the selec-
ton OF studies during a portion, at least,
OF the time passed at Annapolis by those
who subsequently, devote themselves to one
or the other set OF these duties. Undoubtedly
thorough general education should be fur
nished to all the cadets, but the necessity
for special instruction and training accord
ing to the aptitudes and purposes of students
Is evident. Universities and colleges have
special course students. or else systems of
elective as well as compulsory studies, after
the first year qStwo of the regular course.
Quite as evident Il tia nseassity Of estab-
